can a employee claim HRA exemption even if HRA received is more than Rent PAID?
for example:
basic pay 20000
HRA 50% 10000
CA 800
other Allow 1200
total salary 32000 pm.
rent paid 7000 pm
place chennai
Exempted HRA: least of following i.e.60000
a. HRA Received 10000*12=120000
b. rent paid-10% Salary (7000*12)-10% of 240000 = 60000
c. 50% of 240000 = 120000
is above calculation is correct.
can deptt. may ask questioned employer for excess HRA over rent paid
yes, employee can claim HRA even if it is more than its actual rent expense. Department can never ask why salary is structured in particular way by the company?
Can be claimed. The Department has no locus standi on the structuring of salary

Is registration of Leave and License agreement compulsory, for getting the HRA benefit (if yes the relevant rule or section). or it is fine if the same is stamped and PAN no. of the landloard is given.
